That sounds like a good project, if you can't find a local watchmaker let us know. We have carried out repairs from the US before.

Thanks for the kind comments. Casio G-Shocks can be really tough watches too when the seals are well maintained, Tissot make some great watches too.

That's great if you are ever in Nottingham feel free to drop in and we'll check the watch over for you and show you the movement inside.

Thanks, I'm a great fan of Tudor. I would love a no date Submariner but am not a patient enough person to buy one with all the waiting lists and inflated used prices. Tudor watches have the same excellent quality without those complications when purchasing. Excellent watches.

@@cerberuswatches7287 thanks for the reply and your personal thoughts on Tudor (I feel the same about a no date sub). Curious if you have any other brands you are fond of after spending time working on a diversity of brands?

Thanks for the kind words. We currently have a Rolex in that has had water inside for 5 years, I wonder if all the rust damage will convince the Facebook commenters that it is a real job!!! After that there is a GMT Master II which another watchmaker stole parts from and filled with Superglue.

That's not proper cleaning because the crystal will be damaged. Shmuck

With a watch of this age with it's original crystal still in place that is the best way to clean it without damage. Acrylic becomes brittle with age, removing the bezel would very likely crack the crystal. Working on a watch of this age with a desire to protect the originality is very different to a standard service on a modern watch.

@@cerberuswatches7287 well I realise that Woking mainly on vintage myself just not professionally or on such a high calibre brand. I’ve always seen crystals and lume as serviceable items.

Definitely not appropriate to re-lume this dial. If the crystal and lume were replaced here the value would be dramatically reduced.

Yes the gloves get dirty. This service was carried out over the course of a week and edited down to a short video. We change gloves multiple times.

Thanks for the nice comments. The Cerberus name is the name of our watch company. We are repairers at the moment, as that is what pays the bills, but we are developing our own line of watches. The plan is to start featuring the process of making the movements on this channel and eventually transition to a full fledged watch company over the next 10 years.

@@cerberuswatches7287 In that case, cool name! Best of luck with the venture and I look forward to seeing what you bring to market.

Thanks for the comments. Yes, we know we have room to improve the videos. This is brand new to us so there is a steep learning curve. If we worried too much about the production quality we would never start a channel. We will learn as we go and improve the videos over time.

You would find it, wash it with hand soap and you are done.

Thanks!

It only focuses at this distance. Plan is to invest in a couple of better camera's to improve production quality once the channel has enough subscribers to be monetised.

What are you talking about? It's fine

A Submariner spent 14 months in saltwater at a depth of 100m and came out in working order. With a waterproof oyster case the movement and dial are fine underwater. We do hundreds of Rolex watches per year, some are in very bad order. The worse ones will end up on here. As I said to another commenter, we even have a 116710 which we are currently filming which has been filled with superglue. Bad things do happen to very valuable watches.

@@cerberuswatches7287 I stand by what I stated earlier. This 1016 is not gen. Nor does it look like the Tudor on your wrist is either based on the gaps in the rivets. Any GEN 1016 will have sufficient natural patina.

We don't deal in fake watches at all, We are morally opposed to them and do not allow them on the premises. Send me your email address, I'll show you the purchase receipt for the Tudor from Feb this year. Many 1970's watches have nice dials. This one does have some discoloration if you watch the video. We are genuine watchmakers, trying to provide free content to watch fans, not sure why you have decided we deserve criticism but you need to be more accurate in your information before you make false accusations. We do not touch fake watches.

@@cerberuswatches7287 I stand corrected.

@@polygoncoco Some people do really daft things. Mark, who has a watch repair channel has a video where someone put a blob of superglue on the hairspring. In another life when I was mending consumer electronics, I saw a VCR where the owner had gotten a screwdriver under the head assembly and crowbar'ed it up, thinking it shouldn't be tilted over like that... It seems the universe might not be infinite after all, but human stupidity certainly is

That isn't true at all. We service a lot of Rolexs and as a result see some in very bad condition. We have a GMT II coming up which has been filled with Superglue. These things do happen.
